Must be my spanish roots 😜
I could have easily listed all the 11 players from Spain when they won world and eurocup.
That team was unstoppable

football was invented in England, Americans call it soccer. Probably so they can say football to their abomination which is American Football

Thanks for the explanation. But hey: I’m also American (South American).
There’s a football game named Pro Evolution Soccer, so around here many will say soccer instead of football.

Yes, we love to use English words and transform them into Portuguese: football becomes “futebol” knock out “nocaute”, etc
But because of video games we like to use soccer, that doesn’t sound like a similar word to our language.
